Bale - would you have him back?

[Glenjamin]

There's a lot of truth in this........and in addition what more can Zidane do with anageing squad that's won the big pot 3 years out of 3. There's only one way that's heading. I also like the fact that he's pulled the rug from under Perez feet. He know's he would have been sacked if they'd lost, so he's turned the tables brilliantly and left reputation intact and Perez floundering. Maximum effect right before the World cup.

I can't think of anyone right now who would be first choice, but the World cup has just become the perfect audition for the job among some of the top guys.

The Squirrel says - I wonder what the betting is on Joachim Low? outside chances for Conte when he leaves Chelsea or Allegri perhaps?

To be fair Zidane knows how to make an exit....

I still love that! Who the hell head-butts someone in the chest? Cost them the WC but it was almost kinda worth it imo.

Have we not signed him yet? If the transfer fee isn't too high then I can actually start to see this as feasible now. With us needing to sign players under the homegrown bracket or sell some foreign players before bringing any in I think he will be probably be the best homegrown option we could have as he came through the ranks at Southampton. I think he'd take similar deal to Kane's too. He'll be aware he's unlikely to leave Madrid and earn more money.

I live under the total delusion Bale wants to come back to the Premier League and win it with Spurs.

Me too. He'd be a cracking addition to the team! Come on Gareth, I know you're reading this!

Don't want to be banging on about this & boring others but there is no one else that could be a statement signing for NWHL that would make such an impact both on the field & commercially.
No other player could bring what he does & is within our realm of possibilities.

And with Julen there now...

I can see the announcement trailer now

*Movie Trailer Voice over: "Sometimes they change"
Cue montage of old WHL becoming new WHL

*Movie Trailer Voice over: "Sometimes they have always been here"
Cue montage of Harry Kane coming through the ranks with the 'one of our own chant' in the background

*Movie Trailer Voice over: "Sometimes they come back"
Cue montage of Bale's greatest moments in a Spur's shirt

#goosebumps

Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo is set to be confirmed as a Juventus player, possibly in a matter of hours.

It is understood an agreement has been reached between the two clubs that will see the 33-year-old Portuguese end a 10-year stay at the Bernabeu.

Where does this leave Bale?neymar going to Real? or Bale the main man now??

 

[Yid]

Bale won't go now...

I'd have him back in a hot minute.... for the right money on the right deal.

 

[BrooklynYid]

Just keep all our players, sign a class CM and I'll be happy. Bale would be great, but c'mon, they'd want Kane in return. Why wouldn't they? No thanks.

I would have him back too.
I do not think the RM fans would be satisfied with Bale now the Main Man. Especially with his injury record.
They tend to like shiny new toys every year.

They do but they love him, like they live Modric... however.... they fucking loved Ronny too...

They have to win the fucking lot this season or the knives will be out sooner rather than later.

Gareth Bale announces his retirement from football as one former club says he had 'an incredible career'

The 33-year-old Wales captain thanked his fans and said that the sport had given him "the highest of highs" over his 17 season career. Wales, Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton pay tribute to the star.

news.sky.com

Unbelievable player for us. Some of his performances will live long in the memory.
If the attitude was a little better over the last number of years he could've been one of the all time greats imo..
Enjoy your retirement Gareth..

 

[Yid]

Agreed, he was on another level to many that have worn the Lillywhite...

Got a lot of time for his quiet, get the fuck on with it demeanour too.

 

[J.spurs]

Just so dominant--Mbappe-like when he was on song.

Seems like a century ago that we went 20 games or whatever without winning with him in the lineup. Says a lot about his character as well as his talent.

 

[ClemFandango]

God, I remember the "curse" of Gareth Bale as well which still seems absurd when you think about some of the games he had for us. The hat-trick against Inter Milan when absolutely rinsed Zanetti for his second springs to mind quite often

A period where the powers that be seriously considered sending him to Boro...I remember the jokes on the match thread on a certain not-to-be named forum I'd just joined when Harry put him on late against someone (forget the opponent) we were absolutely thrashing just to break the so-called curse.

If I remember correctly, I'm sure I read that the move to Boro came very close to actually happening.

But then I also remember that match as well because I'm pretty sure it was, ironically, against Southampton. We were 4-0 up and he brought Bale on with about 5 minutes left.

I'm no big lover of those "net worth" sites but more than a few of them estimate he's got around £120m in the bank so I'm sure we'd all retire at 33 with that kind of pot

 

[Havocc]

one of the best players this game has ever seen

Definitely as good as Mbappe if not better. Remember the goal against Stoke? UCL final vs the Scouse? Norwich away? West ham away? Inter Milan hat trick, plus so many others, and that doesn't include the assists - Taxi for maicon etc. Simply one of the best in my era.
